GUCCI MUSEO AND THE FILM FOUNDATION, in collaboration with FONDAZIONE SISTEMA TOSCANA, present: CINEMA VISIONARIES

Odeon Cinema, Florence

To celebrate Gucci’s longstanding collaboration with The Film Foundation, Gucci Museo is pleased to present Cinema Visionaries in Florence.Since
2006, Gucci has been committed to adding at least one film every year
to a growing collection of titles newly restored through the work of The Film Foundation.
There is no more powerful way to make clear the preservation message
than to provide audiences with the opportunity to experience restored
cinematic treasures first hand. To that end, Gucci and The Film
Foundation have developed Cinema Visionaries, a traveling screening
series of the restored titles. Cinema Visionaries honors the work of
innovative filmmakers who have made a significant contribution to the
history of motion pictures, by creating public access to their films.

On each Wednesday till 19th March, Cinema Visionaries will bring to
Florence for the first time, eight of the
titles restored in partnership with The Film Foundation. With
screenings of some of the greatest films ever made, Cinema Visionaries
will provide the local audience the unique opportunity to see these
restored masterpieces in all their original beauty:

Gucci has been a partner of The Film
Foundation since 2006. Established in 1990 by Martin Scorsese, the
Foundation is dedicated to protecting and preserving motion picture
history. By working in partnership with the leading archives and
studios, the Foundation raises awareness of the urgent need for film
preservation and has saved over 600 films to date. Joining Martin
Scorsese on the board of directors of the foundation are Woody Allen,
Paul Thomas Anderson, Wes Anderson, Francis Ford Coppola, Clint
Eastwood, Curtis Hanson, Peter Jackson, Ang Lee, George Lucas, Alexander
Payne, Robert Redford and Steven Spielberg.

The Film Foundation's mission is to ensurethat
these films will survive to be seen and experienced by future
generations. Gucci's partnership with The Film Foundation aims to help
preserve the work of influential filmmakers and their legacies.
